Here for sale we have a Yamaha LL11 in natural finish. A set-neck construction comprising a Solid Spruce top, and Indian Rosewood back and sides, Mahogany neck and 20 fret Rosewood fingerboard. The back features a handsome back strip. The body is double bound, whilst the top is adorned with Abalone purfling and an attractive rosette design. Gold Yamaha tuning machines are fitted.
The Mahogany neck plays very well, with the profile feeling somewhat like a soft 'V' shape, on the slimmer side than is typical. This provides a smooth and articulate playing experience across the register, allowing for easy reach in all positions. The gloss finish that has been applied to the neck creates a nicely tactile sensation when playing. The Rosewood of the fingerboard is luxurious under the fingers, whilst the 14" radius and fret wear from years of playing produces a fast and incredibly easy-feeling playing surface.
The acoustic voice of the Yamaha LL11 is rich and beautiful, with a strong bass response thanks to the large body size. The well-aged tonewood of this instrument yields a soft and mellow sound that cannot be imitated in a new instrument, despite what modern manufacturers may claim. The warmth of the low end works fantastically with the smooth midrange, and the age-mellowed top end adds a soft sparkle to every note played on the instrument. The Spruce top projects beautifully, delivering plenty of dynamic range with plenty of clarity at lower volumes. A beautiful sounding instrument with its very own story to tell.
